Then they also announce the dept. head is getting promoted to the next level with immediate effect. So i have lots of … Continue reading Musical Chairs

Life happens…
Been awhile since the last post. Been pretty hectic at the office with more system cutovers this year. Seems like its going to be every other month where there will be a system upgrade and we have to support on the weekends. We planned a family treat of a cruise again this year for the … Continue reading Life happens…
Pause
After the business of moving house and getting through a couple of weeks' catch-up of work, since I took a pretty long break from the office, it's time to slow down and contemplate a little. The birthday is round the corner and i'm also thinking of my mortality and every now and then, what am … Continue reading Pause
Done!
Ok I guess we're done with the move. Pics here. The only outstanding item now is the window blinds which came in the wrong color for the rooms, so the vendor has to come over again when he has the stock imported from Korea. Have been on leave the past 2 weeks and boy was … Continue reading Done!

It gave the neighbor's details and said if they don't pay up, we'll also get burnt or locked-in. The bad english went like "#02-XXX O$P$. NAME … Continue reading O$P$
T-1 Week
We've got about a week to go before the contractors clean up the place and hand it over to us. Really looking forward to inspecting the final work. The lighting was fitted out this week and there are a few lessons for us. Firstly, we agreed to fitting lights at the main entrance and the … Continue reading T-1 Week
More progress
The doors are in! And so are the plumbing works and all the associated bathroom accessories like showers and mixers and WCs. Glass doors and panels are also ready. Here are the pics...  Didn't expect the pipes from the mixer to be exposed because the current place has it built into a false wall, but … Continue reading More progress
